Buena Vista lot in particular has been plenty used since before and during when I lived there.

The Red Line is the most major of the 4 subway lines. A stop on the Red Line should be taken more seriously. They extended it out over 40 years ago but Davis still feels like a village, including being stuck in amber since I moved away in 2011. Also it's the next one from Alewife so some of...

I do, but that doesn't mean they don't also make the most sense. They tend to be much higher quality builds than the 5-over-1's, allowing for greater density on smaller footprints. A few towers also really help with navigation, especially areas like Davis that are "hidden" rather than right on...

I said it before but I'll say it again. Without major upward rezoning, Davis should lose its red line stop and it should instead be routed directly between Alewife and Porter. Six 7-story buildings scattered around the city will cause way more traffic and gridlock issues than one 26 story...

I find that roundabouts stop working once you add pedestrians (and, in particular, pedestrian walk signals) into the mix. See the roundabouts near Alewife as a prime example. This single crosswalk on Concord Ave in Cambridge completely ruins the rotary as cars are constantly backed up into it...

I recognize this is largely a propaganda video, but I've also seen all this stuff with my own eyes. Last year I brought my friend there after a hike and was talking up the city's beauty, but his lasting impression mirrored what is seen in the video. A couple weeks ago I walked down Congress...
